Applications<br />
Honeywell Fema PST and PST…-R series pressure<br />
switches are highly flexible and can be<br />
adjusted and configured in two modes, namely<br />
user mode and expert mode, and are used for<br />
fine adjustment and monitoring of system pressures<br />
in plant engineering, fluidics, process<br />
engineering and pneumatics, and for monitoring<br />
and control of pumps and compressors.<br />
Self-monitored versions are used in manufacturing<br />
lines in the automotive industry and in<br />
many areas of mechanical and special-purpose<br />
engineering. With an overall accuracy of 0.5%<br />
of full scale, these pressure switches/transmitters<br />
are also suitable for measurement monitoring<br />
in many laboratory applications.<br />

<strong>Pressure</strong> switches<br />
Electronic pressure switches / pressure transmitters PST, PST…-R / Smart Press<br />
Definitions<br />
e.g. 3.5 bar<br />
Maximum pressure monitoring<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong><br />
Maximum pressure monitoring<br />
If an output is configured as a maximum detector, the electronic pressure switch monitors a programmed<br />
upper pressure limit. A switching process is triggered as soon as the pressure exceeds<br />
this limit.<br />
e.g. 3.0 bar<br />
= active<br />
= inactive<br />
Time<br />
Minimum pressure monitoring<br />
If an output is configured as a minimum detector, the electronic pressure switch monitors a programmed<br />
lower pressure limit. A switching process is triggered as soon as the pressure falls below<br />
this limit.<br />
Minimum pressure monitoring<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong><br />
e.g. 1.0 bar<br />
e.g. 0.5 bar<br />
= active<br />
Window monitoring<br />
If an output is configured for pressure window monitoring, the electronic pressure switch monitors a<br />
programmed pressure window, i.e. the range between a defined lower limit and a defined<br />
upper limit. A switching process is triggered as soon as the pressure falls below the lower pressure<br />
limit or exceeds the upper pressure limit.<br />
Electronic pressure switch<br />
PST and PST…-R series electronic pressure switches consist of an electronic, piezoresistive pressure<br />
sensor and a downstream analyser with 2 independently programmable switching channels, an<br />
analogue output and an optionally configurable relay output.<br />
= inactive<br />
Window monitoring<br />
Time<br />
Switching differential<br />
In contrast to mechanical pressure switches, where the switching differential is essentially determined<br />
by the design, with electronic pressure switches any switching differential may be chosen. The difference<br />
between the switching point and the reset point (the switching differential) is defined at user level<br />
by entering and saving the switching and reset points via the software. The smallest definable switching<br />
differential corresponds to the display resolution.<br />
Switching point and reset point<br />
Any switching point (SP) and reset point (RP) across the entire nominal pressure range of the electronic<br />
pressure switch can be selected at user level via the software.<br />
Switching point deviation<br />
Illegal settings are automatically detected by the software. The value most recently set has priority over<br />
the value first set. If the electronic pressure switch is configured as a maximum detector, for example,<br />
the switching point (SP) must lie above the reset point (RP). If the reset point is above the<br />
switching point, or the switching point is below the reset point, no error will be displayed, but the<br />
switching points will be shifted accordingly until they are finally saved.<br />
Time Out function<br />
“Time Out” refers to the time window in which values can be entered without the display automatically<br />
reverting to pressure display mode. For all settings at user level the setting window is 1 minute.<br />
This means that if the user does not enter anything for one minute during the setting process, the unit<br />
automatically reverts to display mode and shows the current pressure in the display, disregarding any<br />
values that have been entered but not saved. However, when the unit is in setting mode at expert<br />
level, this “Time Out” function is turned off. In other words, the display (and thus the unit) remain in<br />
setting mode until the settings are saved in expert mode.

Escape function<br />
After entering a valid 4-digit code, the user is able to parameterise and configure the unit at user or<br />
expert level. However, the unit automatically reverts to the locked state if no adjustment activity takes<br />
place within 60 seconds. Any manipulation of the rotary/push button extends the setting time by a further<br />
60 seconds. On returning to the locked state, the word “CODE” (instead of “EXP”) appears in the<br />
corresponding screen. Once the correct code has been entered, the settings can be changed both in<br />
user mode and in expert mode.<br />
In expert mode it is also possible to change the code. While the unit is in expert mode, if values or<br />
settings are changed but not saved (with “SAVE”), the unit will remain in expert mode until a defined<br />
state is chosen with “SAVE” or “REST” (restore data). If the code is set to “0000” in expert mode and<br />
this state is saved (with “SAVE”), the unit remains in the unlocked condition. In this case the “Escape”<br />
function is disabled.<br />
Simulation<br />
To check the connection configuration or the reaction of the system to output signals, the “SIM” setting<br />
can be used to simulate the pressure for which the unit is designed. The pressure can be varied<br />
from 0-100% of the total value with a rotary switch.<br />
To show the reaction limits of the system it is also possible to set an alternating output signal with a<br />
variable pulse frequency (0 - 100% = 4x/sec …1x/16 sec). If simulation mode is not used for 30 minutes,<br />
the unit automatically reverts to display mode.<br />
Electronic slave pointer<br />
Smart Press allows you to trace a failure event back in time. The hours are counted, starting from the<br />
failure event until the readout date. This enables the system operator to determine when the failure<br />
occurred and so draw conclusions about any plant errors.<br />
Zero adjustment<br />
Zero adjustment is used to compensate any drift error of the sensor, which is liable to occur on all<br />
sensors during the lifecycle of the product. With zero adjustment, SmartPress allows you to set the<br />
display precisely to zero at zero pressure. The position of the adjustment curve is simply moved in parallel.<br />
The basic adjustment of the sensor is not changed. Zero adjustment is only possible within a<br />
range of +/– 2% of the overall pressure range. Therefore a position error, which is particularly liable to<br />
occur on sensors in the range of 0-1 bar, can easily be compensated. As the setting range is very<br />
small, it is virtually impossible for the sensor to be accidentally zeroed on pressurization.<br />
Push/pull output<br />
In expert mode the switch outputs can be configured as traditional open collector or push/pull outputs.<br />
The outputs always assume defined states (e.g.: unswitched: minus potential, switched: plus<br />
potential). If the outputs are applied to the input of a PLC, any pull-down resistors<br />
that would otherwise be necessary can be dispensed with.<br />
Adjustment dynamics<br />
The bit generator of the SmartPress has been redesigned. The time-consuming job of “scanning” with<br />
the adjusting knob has given way to a convenient, dynamic setting strategy.<br />
This allows the user to find the desired setting with just a few turns of the handwheel.

Electrical connection<br />
Electrical connection and contact assignment<br />
Electrical connection is via M12 plugs on the back of the unit. Depending on the version, either<br />
2 (PST) or 3 (PST…-R) M12 connector plugs are available (not supplied with the unit).<br />
Contact assignment on plug 1<br />
Pin 1: Supply voltage 14…36 VDC<br />
Pin 2: OUT 2 (output 2) open collector output<br />
Pin 3: 0 volt (ground)<br />
Pin 4: OUT 1 (output 1) open collector output<br />
Pin 5: Serial interface (locked for calibration)<br />
Special characteristic of open collector outputs:<br />
Depending on the design, the output voltage at open collector outputs can be up to 2.5 V lower than<br />
the applied supply voltage.<br />
Example: Supply voltage 14 V… output voltage OUT 1 approx. 11.5 V.<br />
Contact assignment on plug 2<br />
All versions of series PST and PST…-R are also equipped with an A-coded M 12 plug.<br />
Pin 1: Supply voltage 14…36 VDC<br />
Pin 2: WARN (warning output max. 20 mA)<br />
Pin 3: 0 V (ground)<br />
Pin 4: Analogue output AOUT<br />
Pin 5: Serial interface (for factory calibration only)<br />
Units of the PST series can be powered both via plug 1 and via plug 2. If the PST is used purely as a<br />
transmitter, only one connection via plug 2 is needed, because the supply voltage can be connected<br />
here too (see “Contact assignment on plug 1”).<br />
Contact assignment on plug 3<br />
All versions of series PST…R are also equipped with a B-coded M 12 plug.<br />
Suitable cable sockets should be ordered at the same time for the electrical connection.<br />
Optional accessories<br />

Plug protection cap<br />
IP67 STA12<br />
NB – For IP65 special plug protection cap STA12 is required<br />
Observance of IP65 water and dust proofing requires the secure sealing of electrical connections not<br />
closed with plugs.<br />
The soft rubber dust caps fitted for shipping do not fulfil this requirement. A reliable seal can only be<br />
achieved by the STA12 protection cap.

Switch outputs<br />
Switch output OUT1 and OUT2:<br />
The switch outputs can be configured via the software (at expert level) both as normally closed / normally<br />
open, and as high-side and low-side switching.<br />
low-side switching<br />
high-side switching<br />
· In normally closed configuration, the selected voltage potential (ground or supply voltage) occurs<br />
at the output in the unswitched state.<br />
· In normally open configuration, the selected voltage potential (ground or supply voltage) occurs at<br />
the output in the switched state.<br />
· In the low-side switching configuration, the outputs switch the voltage potential 0V (ground) with<br />
respect to a consumer connected to OUT1 or OUT2.<br />
· In the high-side switching configuration, the outputs switch the supply voltage potential (minus<br />
approx. 2V) with respect to a consumer connected to OUT1 or OUT2.<br />
If the power supplies of the pressure switch and connected load are independent of one<br />
another, the following must be taken into account: The potential difference between OC output<br />
and ground and OC output and supply voltage must not exceed 36 VDC. If the unit is<br />
configured for low-side switching, the external supply voltage must have the same ground<br />
reference as the unit itself. If the unit is defined as high-side switching, the external supply<br />
voltage must be linked to the supply voltage of the unit. It is important to note that the voltage<br />
drop in the through-connected state can be as much as 2 V. The maximum permitted<br />
current at the OC is 250 mA per switch output (OUT1, OUT2). A maximum switching current<br />
of 250 mA may flow through each channel.<br />
The switching channels are short-circuit-proof and they are monitored for current and temperature.<br />
Where current limiting is used and on overheating, both LEDs light up red (WARN function).<br />
The freely configurable outputs can connect both the supply voltage (+ potential) itself and the ground<br />
(– potential) of the supply voltage to the output. If plus potential exists at the output, ground minus<br />
potential occurs after switching over.<br />
If ground minus potential exists at the output, plus potential occurs after switching over.<br />
High-side switching push/pull outputs<br />
Advantage: The output behaves like a mechanical changeover contact which emits either plus or<br />
minus potential. In other words, the open output is never electrically undefined, as is the case with an<br />
open collector output. Pull-up resistors are therefore unnecessary.<br />
Analogue output and relay output<br />
plug 3<br />
Analogue output AOUT:<br />
The analogue output (AOUT) is available in versions PST and PST…-R. In expert mode it is configurable<br />
both as a 0-10 V/10-0 V, and as a 4–20 mA/20–4 mA output. The unit is supplied with the output<br />
configured for 0-10 V. The input impedance of the connected consumer must not exceed 500<br />
ohms.<br />
Relay output REL:<br />
The relay output is available in version PST…-R. In expert mode the analogue output can be coupled<br />
via the software with output 1 (OUT1) and output 2 (OUT2), and with the WARN function. This means<br />
that the user can choose a potential-free output for these 3 important functions. The changeover contact<br />
of the relay is designed for a maximum resistive load of 4 A and an inductive load of 200 VA. At<br />
the lower end the 5 μ gold-plated silver contacts are designed for a minimum load of 50 mW. (5 V at<br />
10 mA).<br />
It should always be remembered that after a one-off maximum load, use at minimum load is<br />
no longer possible.

Display<br />
The unit has a 4-place digital display with 3 decimal points and a minus sign. There are also other<br />
symbols for the different settings and configurations.<br />
The display also includes a bar graph. This is at the top of the display and consists of a row of separately<br />
addressable individual segments with arrow symbols at either end.<br />
As soon as the unit is powered up, all symbols appear on the display for 1 second as a test and the<br />
two LEDs light up briefly. The unit then goes into display mode, showing the current system pressure<br />
and the selected unit (bar, PSI or Pa). In addition the pressure trend (falling or rising) is indicated by an<br />
arrow at the left (falling) or right (rising) end. The “AOUT” indicator tells the user that the pressure is<br />
currently in the predefined pressure range for the analogue signal.<br />

· Green: the output is INACTIVE (if defined as WARN output, likewise INACTIVE)<br />
· During input of the switching points, only the LED of the switching channel currently being modified<br />
is active. When switching points are entered, if an implausible entry is made for the maximum detector,<br />
e. g. SP < RP, the relevant channel LED lights up red.<br />
· Both status LEDs light up red as soon as a WARN state occurs (e. g. electronics faulty and unit overheating).<br />

Settings at user level<br />
Switch output OUT 1 and OUT 2<br />
At user level, the switching point (SP) and reset point (RP) can be set across the entire nominal pressure<br />
range.<br />
When the DIG (digital incremental sensor) is turned by one notch in the clockwise direction, the symbol<br />
“OUT 1” and “SP” appears. When the DIG is pressed, the EDIT “symbol” appears.<br />
After that, any switching point can be selected by turning the DIG clockwise or anticlockwise. When<br />
you press the DIG again, “SAVE” is displayed. Press the DIG again to confirm. The chosen switching<br />
point is now permanently saved.<br />
Turn it clockwise again to display the reset point (RP) symbol. The reset point (RP) is set in the same<br />
way as the switching point (SP).<br />
Analogue output (AOUT)<br />
Turning the DIG clockwise again opens the analogue output (AOUT) window. The screen displays the<br />
lower pressure value set (AOUT ZERO). Press the DIG to enter “EDIT” mode and then “SAVE” to save<br />
the lower reference value permanently.<br />
Turn the DIG again to set “AOUT” “FSO”. Here you can alter the upper reference value. The pressure<br />
value can be changed in the way described above.<br />

Time<br />
Filter setting (attenuation)<br />
To make the pressure switch insensitive to pressure peaks and to avoid distorting the measured value<br />
due to pressure peaks, a filter value of 0…95% can be set. After setting the switching points of<br />
OUT 2, turn the DIG again to open the “ATT” window. After pressing the DIG the user can change the<br />
value in edit mode (EDIT) or turn the filter off completely (OFF). Save the selected filter value with<br />
“SAVE”. It is now permanently stored in the memory. The currently measured pressure is compared<br />
with the pressure measured previously. The currently measured pressure is then attenuated depending<br />
on the selected degree of filtering. This attenuation affects all outputs, i. e. all open collector outputs<br />
and relay outputs as well as the analogue output, as the attenuation has a direct influence on the<br />
incoming sensor signal. The previously measured pressure and the currently measured pressure (internally<br />
offset against each other) always produce a weight of 100%. The filter attenuation (effect) can be<br />
mathematically expressed as follows:<br />
R[x] = M[x] * (100% - F) + R[x - 1] * F<br />
where:<br />
“F” is the selected attenuation in %,<br />
“M[x]” is the measured value as a function of a defined time “x”,<br />
“R[x - 1]” is the previously displayed and output (calculated) measured value “x - 1”, and<br />
“R[x]” is the displayed and output (calculated) measured value in the time “x”.<br />
Electronic slave pointer<br />
Before you exit user mode, the Smart Press shows the extreme states in the past by means of<br />
right/left bar graph arrows and maximum values in the vacuum/overpressure range. Press DIG<br />
once to enter “EDIT” mode and turn the knob to see how much time has passed since the event<br />
occurred.

Settings at expert level<br />
Configuration of OUT 1 and OUT 2<br />
The last menu item in user mode (EXP) allows you to enter expert mode (after entering a code if necessary).<br />
The screen shows the configuration of OUT 1 (e.g. as WIN monitor for pressure window monitoring).<br />
Press the DIG to enter edit mode (EDIT). Output 1 can be configured as a minimum detector<br />
(left arrow), maximum detector (right arrow) or for pressure window monitoring (WIN) and as a<br />
push/pull output. Press to confirm your selection and open the function screen (FCT 1) of output 1.<br />
Press to enter edit mode (EDIT) and configure output 1 as normally open (NO), normally closed (NC),<br />
high-side or low-side switching or as a push/pull output.<br />
OUT 2 is configured in the same sequence, but note than output 2 can also be configured as a<br />
WARN output.<br />
Configuration of analogue output (AOUT)<br />
Turn the DIG clockwise again to open the configuration menu (AOUT). The screen shows either FCTA<br />
(current output) or FCTV (voltage output). In EDIT mode the analogue output can be configured as<br />
current or voltage output, or inverted.<br />
Allocation of relay contact (on PST…-R versions only)<br />
Turn the DIG clockwise again to enter the relay output configuration mode (REL). Press to switch to<br />
EDIT mode. Turn to apply the relay function to OUT 1, OUT 2 or WARN. The OC outputs are not<br />
affected by this. That is to say, the relay function should always be regarded as parallel to the corresponding<br />
output.<br />
Setting pressure units to bar, Pascal or PSI<br />
Turn the DIG clockwise again to enter the “UNIT” menu. Press and turn to select and confirm the<br />
desired pressure unit.<br />
Setting the display background lighting<br />
Select the menu option LED+ at expert level and “EDIT”, then choose LED+ (permanently lit) or<br />
LED– (switching off automatically).<br />
Simulation mode<br />
Smart Press allows you to simulate various system states for checking connections and functions.<br />
Select menu option SIM1 to take the system pressure through 0-100% according to the sensor specification.<br />
Selected switching points and the analogue output can be checked during this process.<br />
The menu option SIM2 allows you to initiate an alternating square wave signal with a variable pulse frequency.<br />
In this way you can test the system’s ability to react to sensor signals. If the display shows<br />
SIM--, simulation mode is turned off.<br />
Setting a four-digit locking code<br />
Turn the DIG clockwise again to enter the “CODE” menu. Press to enter EDIT mode, where you can<br />
enter and confirm a four-digit code between 0001 and 9999. 0000 is not a code.<br />
Exiting expert level via the EXIT menu<br />
Turn the DIG clockwise again to enter the “EXIT” menu. Press to go directly to display mode or to the<br />
SAVE menu (if any value has been modified). Here you can either confirm the new state with SAVE, or<br />
go back to the previous state (which existed before the modification) with REST (Restore).

Permissible bursting pressure (maximum permissible pressure)<br />
The maximum working pressure is defined as the upper limit at which the operation, switching reliability<br />
and water tightness are in no way impaired (for values see Product Summary).<br />
Bursting pressure (test pressure)<br />
Type-tested products undergo a pressure test certified by TÜV affirming that the bursting pressure<br />
reaches at least the values mentioned in the Product Summary. During the pressure tests the measuring<br />
bellows are permanently deformed, but the pressurized parts do not leak or burst. The bursting pressure<br />
is usually a multiple of the permissible working pressure.<br />

Switching differential<br />
The switching differential (hysteresis) is the difference in pressure between the switching point (SP)<br />
and the reset point (RSP) of a pressure switch. Switching differential tolerances occur due to tolerances<br />
in the microswitches, springs and pressure bellows. Therefore the data in the Product<br />
Summaries are always average values. In the case of limiter functions the switching differential has no<br />
significance, as one is only interested in the switching point at which cutoff occurs, not the reset point.<br />
For a controller function, i.e. in the case of pressure switches used to switch a burner, pump etc.<br />
on and off, a pressure switch with an adjustable switching differential should be chosen.<br />
The switching frequency of the burner or pump can be varied by changing the switching differential.<br />
Adjustable switching differential / Calibration<br />
In the case of pressure switches with adjustable switching differential, the hysteresis can be set within<br />
the specified limits. The switching point (SP) and reset point (RSP) are precisely definable. When setting<br />
the pressure switch, the switching differential situation and the type of factory calibration must be<br />
taken into account. Some pressure switches (e.g. minimum pressure monitors of the DCM series) are<br />
calibrated under “falling” pressure, i.e. switching under falling pressure takes place at the scale value<br />
with the switching differential lying above it. The device switches back at scale value + switching differential.<br />
If the pressure switch is calibrated under rising pressure, switching takes place at the scale<br />
value and the device switches back at scale value — switching differential (see direction of action).<br />
The calibration method is indicated in the data sheets.<br />
Direction of action<br />
In principle, any pressure switch can be used for both maximum pressure and minimum pressure<br />
monitoring. This excludes pressure limiters, whose direction of action (maximum or minimum) is predefined.<br />
The only thing to remember is that the scale reading may deviate by the amount of the switching<br />
differential. See example at bottom left: The scale value is 2.8 bar.<br />
Maximum pressure monitoring<br />
With rising pressure, switching takes place once the preset switching pressure is reached (SP). The<br />
reset point (RP) is lower by the amount of the switching differential.<br />
Minimum pressure monitoring<br />
With falling pressure, switching takes place once the preset switching pressure is reached (SP).<br />
The reset point (RP) is higher by the amount of the switching differential.<br />
Direction of action in vacuum range<br />
It is particularly important to define the direction of action in the vacuum range.<br />
Rising does not mean a rising vacuum, but rising pressure (from the point of view of absolute “0”).<br />
“Falling” pressure means a rising vacuum.<br />
Example: Vacuum switch set to –0.6 bar falling means: Switching (SP) takes place under falling pressure<br />
(rising vacuum) at –0.6 bar. The reset point is higher by the amount of the switching differential<br />
(e.g. at –0.55 bar).<br />
Setting a pressure switch<br />
To define the switching point of a pressure switch exactly, in addition to the pressure it is also necessary<br />
to determine the direction of action. “Rising” means that switching takes place at the set value<br />
when the pressure rises.<br />
The reset point is then lower by the amount of the switching differential. “Falling” means exactly the<br />
opposite.<br />
Please note when specifying the setting of a pressure switch:<br />
In addition to the switching point it is also necessary to specify the direction of action (falling or rising).<br />
Example for selection of a pressure switch:<br />
A pump is to be turned on at 2.8 bar and off again at 4.2 bar.<br />
Chosen type: DCM6-203 according to data sheet DCM. Setting: Scale pointer to 2.8 bar (lower<br />
switching point). Switching differential to 1.4 bar (set according to pressure gauge).<br />
Cutoff point: 2.8 bar +1.4 bar = 4.2 bar.

General information about<br />
explosion protection<br />
Basic principle<br />
The basic principle of explosion protection is that:<br />
a) combustible materials (gas, vapour, mist or dust) in dangerous quantities<br />
b) air (or oxygen)<br />
c) ignition sources<br />
must not occur in the same place.<br />
The permanent or temporary occurrence of explosive mixtures as per a) and b) is often unavoidable,<br />
therefore when operating electrical installations care must be taken to ensure that no ignition sources<br />
can occur.<br />
With this in mind, the CENELEC technical committee has adopted the following European standards<br />
which are recognized in all EU member states.<br />
· General requirements EN 50 014 · <strong>Pressure</strong> resistant encapsulation “d” EN 50 018<br />
· Oil encapsulation “o” EN 50 015 · Increased safety “e” EN 50 019<br />
· Overpressure encapsulation “p” EN 50 016 · Intrinsic safety “i” EN 50 020<br />
· Sand encapsulation “q” EN 50 017 · Cast encapsulation “m” EN 50 028<br />
The guidelines relevant to FEMA products – besides the “General Requirements EN 50 014” – are<br />
“<strong>Pressure</strong> resistant encapsulation d” and “Intrinsic safety i”.<br />
In addition, all explosion protection guidelines issued up to the present time have been combined into<br />
a single European Ex-Protection Directive 94/9EC. The aim of this new harmonized directive is to bring<br />
the explosion protection regulations of European member states into line with one another and eliminate<br />
barriers to trade between partner states. The new Directive 94/9EC (ATEX 100a), which came<br />
into force on 1 July 2003, replaces all previous directives.<br />
All FEMA ex-pressure switches and ex-thermostats meet the requirements of the new European Ex-<br />
Protection Directive 94/9EC (ATEX 100a).<br />
EEx-d<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> resistant encapsulation “d”<br />
Switching elements and other electrical function units capable of igniting an explosive mixture are cast<br />
in a housing capable of withstanding the explosive pressure caused by an explosion indoors and preventing<br />
transmission to the surrounding atmosphere.<br />
EEx-i<br />
Intrinsic safety “i”<br />
The equipment used in the area at risk of explosion contains only intrinsically safe electric circuits. An<br />
electric circuit is only intrinsically safe if the quantity of energy is so small that no spark or thermal<br />
effect can occur.<br />
The term “simple electrical equipment”<br />
In view of the use of simple microswitches without additional capacitance or inductance generating<br />
components, our pressure switches and thermostats designed for protection type Ex-i fall in the category<br />
of “simple electrical equipment”. These are not subject to testing or certification requirements<br />
within the meaning of Directive 94/9EC. The units may only be used in conjunction with ATEX-tested<br />
isolating amplifiers in areas at risk of explosion. We equip all units which are explicitly designed for<br />
such use with microswitches having gold contacts, a grounding screw and — for ease of identification<br />
— a blue cable entry.

Zone classification<br />
Explosion risk areas are grouped into zones according to the likelihood of a dangerous explosive<br />
atmosphere according to EN 1127-1 occurring.<br />
When assessing the explosion hazard, i.e. when identifying explosion risk areas, the “Guidelines for<br />
the Avoidance of Danger due to Explosive Atmospheres with Examples (ExRL)” of the German<br />
Insurance Association for the Chemical Industry [Berufsgenossenschaft Chemie] must be taken into<br />
account.<br />
If the situation concerns a special case or if doubts exist as to the definition of explosion risk areas, the<br />
matter shall be decided by the supervisory authorities (Trade Supervisory Office [Gewerbeaufsichtsamt],<br />
where applicable with the assistance of the Insurance Association or the Technical Control<br />
Boards [Technische Überwachungsvereine]).<br />
In Zones 0 (20) and 1 (21), only electrical equipment for which a type test certificate has been issued<br />
by a recognized testing agency may be used. In Zone 0 (20), however, only equipment expressly<br />
authorized for that zone may be used. Equipment approved for use in Zones 0 (20) and 1 (21) may<br />
also be used in Zone 2 (22). Under the new European Directive 94/9 EC (ATEX 100a), a distinction is<br />
made between gas atmospheres and dust atmospheres. This results in the following zone classifications:<br />
Gas<br />
Dust<br />
Zone 0<br />
Zone 0 (gas) is a place in which a dangerous explosive<br />
atmosphere is present continuously or for long periods. This<br />
normally includes only the interior of containers or the interior<br />
of apparatus (evaporators, reaction vessels etc.), if the conditions<br />
of Zone 0 are fulfilled. Continuous danger > 1000<br />
hours/year.<br />
Zone 1 occasionally Zone 1 (gas) is a place in which a dangerous explosive<br />
atmosphere can be expected to occur occasionally in normal<br />
operation. This may include the immediate vicinity of Zone 0.<br />
Occasional danger = 10 to 1000 hours/year.<br />
Zone 2<br />
Zone 20<br />
continuously or<br />
for long periods<br />
seldom and for<br />
short periods<br />
continuously or<br />
for long periods<br />
Zone 2 (gas) is a place in which a dangerous explosive<br />
atmosphere can be expected to occur only rarely and then<br />
only for short periods. This may include areas surrounding<br />
Zones 0 and/or 1. Danger only under abnormal operating conditions<br />
< 10 hours/year.<br />
Zone 20 (dust) is a place in which a dangerous explosive<br />
atmosphere in the form of a cloud of dust in air is present<br />
continuously or for long periods, and in which dust deposits of<br />
unknown or excessive thickness may be formed. Dust<br />
deposits on their own do not form a Zone 20. Continuous<br />
danger > 1000 hours/year.<br />
Zone 21 occasionally Zone 21 (dust) is a place in which a dangerous explosive<br />
atmosphere in the form of a cloud of dust in air may occasionally<br />
occur in normal operation, and in which deposits or layers<br />
of inflammable dust may generally be present. This may also<br />
include the immediate vicinity of Zone 20. Occasional danger<br />
= 10 to 1000 hours/year.<br />
Zone 22<br />
seldom and for<br />
short periods<br />
Zone 22 (dust ) is a place in which a dangerous explosive<br />
atmosphere may be expected to occur only rarely and then<br />
only for short periods. This may include areas in the vicinity of<br />
Zones 20 and 21. Danger only under abnormal operating conditions<br />
< 10 hours/year.

the equipment and on the dusts lying on, adhering to and/or surrounding the equipment. This affects<br />
the gap dimensions required for pressure-proof encapsulation and, in the case of intrinsically safe circuits,<br />
the maximum permitted current and voltage values. Gases, vapours and dusts are therefore<br />
subdivided into various explosion groups.<br />
The danger of the gases rises from explosion group IIA to IIC. The requirements for electrical equipment<br />
in these explosion groups increase accordingly. Electrical equipment approved for IIC may also<br />
be used for all other explosion groups.<br />
Temperature class<br />
The maximum surface temperature of an item of equipment must always be lower than the ignition<br />
temperature of the gas, vapour or dust mixture. The temperature class is therefore a measure of the<br />
maximum surface temperature of an item of equipment.<br />
Temperature class Ignition temperature °C Maximum surface temperature<br />
°C<br />
T1 > 450 450<br />
T2 > 300 300<br />

Identification of explosion-protected electrical equipment<br />
In addition to normal data (manufacturer, type, serial number, electrical data), data relating to the explosion<br />
protection must be included in the identification.<br />
Under the new Directive 94/9EC (ATEX 95), based on IEC recommendations, the following identification<br />
is required:<br />

<strong>Pressure</strong> switches<br />
Mechanical pressure switches<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> monitoring in explosion risk<br />
areas Zone 1, 2 and 21, 22<br />
Specially equipped pressure switches can also be used in explosion risk areas Zone 1, 2 and 21,<br />
22. The following alternatives are possible:<br />
1. <strong>Pressure</strong>-proof encapsulated switching device,<br />
explosion protection EEx de IIC T6, PTB 02 ATEX 1121<br />
The pressure switch with pressure-proof encapsulation can be used directly in the explosion risk area<br />
(Zone 1 and 2 or 21 and 22). The maximum switching voltage, switching capacity and ambient temperature<br />
must be taken into account and the rules for installation in the explosion risk area must be<br />
observed. All pressure switches may be equipped with explosion-proof switching devices. However,<br />
special circuits and designs with an adjustable switching differential or internal interlock (reclosing lockout)<br />
are not permitted.<br />
2. EEx-i pressure switches<br />
All pressure switches of normal design can be used in explosion risk areas Zone 1 and 2 or 21 and<br />
22, if they are integrated into an “intrinsically safe control current circuit”. Intrinsic safety is based on<br />
the principle that the control current circuit in the explosion risk area carries only a small quantity of<br />
energy which is not capable of generating an ignitable spark.<br />
Isolating amplifiers, e.g. type Ex 011 or Ex 041, must be tested by the Physikalisch-Technische<br />
Bundesanstalt (PTB) and approved for use in explosion risk areas. Isolating amplifiers must always be<br />
installed outside the explosion risk zone.<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> switches designed for EEx-ia installations may be provided with blue connection terminals<br />
and cable entries. In view of the low voltages and currents carried via the contacts of the microswitches,<br />
gold-plates contacts are recommended (additional function ZF 513).<br />
3. <strong>Pressure</strong> switches with microswitch and resistor combination for short-circuit and line<br />
break monitoring (see DBS series)<br />
A combination of a pressure switch with mechanical microswitch connected to a 1.5 kOhm series<br />
resistor and a safety-engineered isolating amplifier (type Ex 041) may also be used in explosion risk<br />
zones 1, 2 and 21, 22 (explosion protection EEx-ia).<br />
The safety-engineered isolating amplifier produces a separate intrinsically safe control current circuit<br />
and at the same time monitors the supply conductors between the isolating amplifier and the pressure<br />
switch for short-circuit and line break. In this regard, see also the section on pressure limiters for safety-critical<br />
applications and data sheet Ex 041.<br />

<strong>Pressure</strong> switches<br />
General description<br />
Operating mode<br />
The pressure occurring in the sensor housing (1) acts on the measuring bellows (2). Changes in pressure<br />
lead to movements of the measuring bellows (2) which are transmitted via a thrust pin (4) to the<br />
connecting bridge (5). The connecting bridge is frictionlessly mounted on hardened points (6). When the<br />
pressure rises the connecting bridge (5) moves upwards and operates the microswitch (7). A counterforce<br />
is provided by the spring (8) whose pretension can be modified by the adjusting screw (9)<br />
(switching point adjustment). Turning the setting spindle (9) moves the running nut (10) and modifies<br />
the pretension of the spring (8). The screw (11) is used to calibrate the microswitch in the factory. The<br />
counter-pressure spring (12) ensures stable switching behaviour, even at low setting values.<br />

<strong>Pressure</strong> sensors<br />
Apart from a few exceptions in the low-pressure range, all pressure sensors have measuring bellows,<br />
some made of copper alloy, but the majority of high-quality stainless steel. Measured on the basis of<br />
permitted values, the measuring bellows are exposed to a minimal load and perform only a small lifting<br />
movement. This results in a long service life with little switching point drift and high operating reliability.<br />
Furthermore, the stroke of the bellows is limited by an internal stop so that the forces resulting from<br />
the overpressure cannot be transmitted to the switching device. The parts of the sensor in contact<br />
with the medium are welded together without filler metals. The sensors contain no seals. Copper bellows,<br />
which are used only for low pressure ranges, are soldered to the sensor housing. The sensor<br />
housing and all parts of the sensor in contact with the medium can also be made entirely from stainless<br />
steel 1.4571 (DNS series). Precise material data can be found in the individual data sheets.<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> connection<br />
The pressure connection on all pressure switches is executed in accordance with DIN 16288 (pressure<br />
gauge connection G 1/2A). If desired, the connection can also be made with a G 1/4 internal thread<br />
according to ISO 228 Part 1. Maximum screw-in depth on the G 1/4 internal thread = 9 mm.<br />
Centring pin<br />
In the case of connection to the G 1/2 external thread with seal in the thread (i.e. without the usual<br />
sheet gasket on the pressure gauge connection), the accompanying centring pin is not needed.<br />
Differential pressure switches have 2 pressure connections (max. and min.) each of which are connected<br />
to a G 1/4 internal thread.

Mechanical pressure switches<br />
Setting instructions<br />
Factory calibration of pressure switches<br />
In view of tolerances in the characteristics of sensors and springs, and due to friction in the switching<br />
kinematics, slight discrepancies between the setting value and the switching point are unavoidable.<br />
The pressure switches are therefore calibrated in the factory in such a way that the setpoint adjustment<br />
and the actual switching pressure correspond as closely as possible in the middle of the range.<br />
Possible deviations spread to both sides equally.<br />
The device is calibrated either for falling pressure (calibration at lower switching point) or for rising<br />
pressure (calibration at higher switching point), depending on the principal application of the type<br />
series in question.<br />
Where the pressure switch is used at other than the basic calibration, the actual switching point<br />
moves relative to the set switching point by the value of the average switching differential. As FEMA<br />
pressure switches have very small switching differentials, the customer can ignore this where the<br />
switching pressure is set only roughly. If a very precise switching point is needed, this must be calibrated<br />
and checked in accordance with normal practice using a pressure gauge.<br />

Setting switching pressures<br />
Prior to adjustment, the securing pin above the scale must be loosened by not more than 2 turns and<br />
retightened after setting. The switching pressure is set via the spindle. The set switching pressure is<br />
shown by the scale.<br />
To set the switching points accurately it is necessary to use a pressure gauge.<br />

Changing the switching differential (only for switching device with suffix “V”, ZF 203)<br />
By means of setscrew within the spindle. The lower switching point is not changed by the differential<br />
adjustment; only the upper switching point is shifted by the differential. One turn of the differential<br />
screw changes the switching differential by about of the total differential range. The switching differential<br />
is the hysteresis, i.e. the difference in pressure between the switching point and the reset point.<br />
Lead seal of setting spindle (for plug connection housing 200 only)<br />
The setting spindle for setting the desired value and switching differential can be covered and sealed<br />
with sealing parts available as accessories (type designation: P2) consisting of a seal plate and capstan<br />
screw. The sealing parts may be fitted subsequently. The painted calibration screws are likewise<br />
covered.
<strong>Pressure</strong> switches<br />
Mechanical pressure switches — <strong>Pressure</strong> limiters<br />
31<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> switch with locking of<br />
switching state (reclosing lockout)<br />
In the case of limiter functions, the switching state must be retained and locked, and only unlocked<br />
and the system restarted once the cause of the safety shutdown has been eliminated. There are two<br />
ways of doing this:<br />
1. Mechanical locking inside the pressure switch<br />
Instead of a microswitch with automatic reset, limiters contain a “bistable” microswitch. If the pressure<br />
reaches the value set on the scale, the microswitch trips over and remains in this position. The lock<br />
can be released by pressing the unlocking button (identified by a red dot on the scale side of the<br />
switching device). The interlock can operate with rising or falling pressure depending on the version.<br />
The device can only be unlocked when the pressure has been reduced (or increased) by the<br />
amount of the predefined switching differential. When selecting a pressure limiter, it is necessary<br />
to distinguish between maximum and minimum pressure monitoring. EEx-d versions cannot be<br />
equipped with internal locking.<br />

2. External electrical interlock in the control cabinet (suggested circuits)<br />
A pressure monitor (microswitch with automatic reset) can also be used as a limiter if an electrical<br />
interlock is added. For pressure limitation in steam and hot water boilers, an external interlock is only<br />
permitted if it has been ascertained that the pressure monitor is “of special construction”.<br />

Where the above interlock circuit is used, the requirements of DIN 57 116/VDE 0116 are met if the<br />
electrical equipment (such as contactors or relays) of the external interlock circuit satisfy VDE 0660 or<br />
VDE 0435.

Calibration<br />
The DCM series is calibrated for falling pressure. This means that the adjustable switching pressure on<br />
the scale corresponds to the switching point at falling pressure. The reset point is higher by the<br />
amount of the switching differential. (See also page 30, 1. Calibration at lower switching point).<br />

All data relating to the setting range and<br />
thus also the scale divisions on the switching<br />

in pressure between the relevant atmospheric<br />
pressure and the set switching pressure.<br />
The “zero” reference point on the scale of the<br />
unit corresponds to the relevant atmospheric<br />
pressure. A minus sign before the pressure value<br />
signifies negative pressure below the relevant<br />
atmospheric pressure.<br />

FEMA differential pressure switches are suitable<br />
for monitoring and controlling differential pressures,<br />
flow monitoring and automatic control of<br />
filter systems. A double chamber system with<br />
stainless steel bellows or Perbunan diaphragm<br />
accurately detects the difference between the<br />
two applied pressures. The desired switching<br />
pressure is continuously adjustable within the<br />
ranges mentioned in the type summary.<br />
The settings relate to the lower switching point<br />
(with falling differential pressure). The upper<br />
switching point (with rising differential pressure)<br />
is higher by the amount of the switching differential.<br />
All differential pressure monitors can also be<br />
used in the vacuum range. Every pressure<br />
switch has 2 pressure connections with appropriate<br />
markings.<br />

Calibration<br />
The DDCM series is calibrated for falling pressure. This means that the adjustable switching pressure<br />
on the scale corresponds to the switching point at falling pressure. The reset point is higher by the<br />
amount of the switching differential. (See also page 30, 1. Calibration at lower switching point).<br />

<strong>Pressure</strong> switches<br />
Mechanical pressure switches/Differential pressure switches<br />
S2 type series<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> switches with 2 microswitches – technical data<br />
FEMA pressure switches of the DCM (except<br />
DCM 1000, DCM 4016 and DCM 4025), VCM<br />
(except VCM 4156), VNM, DNS, VNS series<br />
and the differential pressure monitor DDCM<br />
(except DDCM 252, 662, 1602, 6002) can be<br />
equipped with 2 microswitches (see also the<br />
table on page 41).<br />
This is not possible with any other type<br />
series or with Ex versions.<br />
Technical data<br />
Standard equipment<br />
The standard equipment of every two-stage<br />
pressure switch includes a switching device<br />
with 2 microswitches, both single-pole switching.<br />
Switch I monitors the low pressure, switch<br />
II the higher pressure. The setting ranges indicated<br />
in the data sheets for the basic types<br />
apply to the two-stage pressure switches as<br />
well. It should be noted that the switching differentials<br />
of the individual microswitches may<br />
not be exactly the same due to component tolerances.<br />
Switching interval<br />
The switching interval of the two microswitches<br />
is the difference (in bar or mbar) between<br />
the switching points of the two microswitches.<br />
For example:<br />
When the pressure rises, a two-stage pressure<br />
switch turns on a warning light (e.g. 2.8 bar),<br />
and if the pressure continues to rise (e.g. 3.2<br />
bar) the system shuts down. The switching<br />
interval is 3.2–2.8 = 0.4 bar. For all versions<br />
the rule is:<br />
The switching interval remains constant over<br />
the whole setting range of the pressure switch.<br />
If the switching pressure setting is changed<br />
with the setting spindle, the switching interval<br />
does not change – the switching points are<br />
moved in parallel.<br />
Switching differential<br />
The switching differential, i.e. the hysteresis of<br />
the individual microswitches, corresponds to<br />
the values of the relevant basic design referred<br />
to in the Product Summary. In the case of twostage<br />
pressure switches, the switching differential<br />
of the individual microswitches is not<br />
adjustable.<br />
Versions<br />
Two-stage pressure switches are available in<br />
three different versions, each identified by a ZF<br />
number. The versions differ in terms of their<br />
connection schemes and electrical connection<br />
types (terminal or plug connection).<br />
The applicable data sheet for the basic types contains the technical data for the two-stage pressure<br />
switches. This includes all limits of use, temperature, maximum pressure, mounting position, type of<br />
protection, electrical data etc. The principal dimensions are the same as for single-stage pressure<br />
switches, with similar pressure ranges and design features.<br />

Switching devices with adjustable switching interval<br />
Additional function ZF 217<br />
On switching devices with additional function ZF 217, the switching interval is continuously adjustable<br />
via two adjustment knobs I and II accessible from outside. The maximum switching intervals are stated<br />
in the “Switching intervals” table.<br />
Turning adjustment knob I clockwise produces a lower switching point for microswitch I.<br />
Turning adjustment knob II anticlockwise produces a higher switching point for microswitch II.<br />
Adjustment knobs I and II have an internal stop to prevent the microswitches from being adjusted<br />
beyond the effective range.<br />
Adding together the adjustments on knobs I and II gives the switching interval between the two<br />
microswitches. Changes made with the setting spindle do not affect the switching interval. The<br />
switching interval remains constant over the whole setting range of the spindle. The two switching<br />
points are moved up or down in parallel.<br />
Recommended adjustment method for switching devices with ZF 217<br />
1. Set adjustment knobs I and II to their basic positions.<br />
Turn adjustment knob I<br />
as far as possible anticlockwise.<br />
Turn adjustment knob II<br />
as far as possible clockwise.<br />
2. Adjust the setting spindle S by the scale to a value midway between the desired upper and lower<br />
switching points.<br />
3. With pressure applied, set the lower switching point with adjustment knob I.<br />
4. In the same way as in step 3, set the upper switching point with adjustment knob II.<br />
5. If the desired upper and lower switching points cannot be reached, turn the setting spindle S in the<br />
appropriate direction and repeat steps 3 and 4.

Examples of use for two-stage pressure switches<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> monitoring and controlling can be greatly simplified by using pressure monitors with two<br />
built-in microswitches which can be made to operate one after the other under rising or falling pressure.<br />
For example, minimum and maximum pressure monitoring can be achieved with only one pressure<br />
switch, doing away with the need for a second pressure switch (including the cost of installation).<br />
Step switching, e.g. pressure-dependent control of a two-stage pump, is of course also possible using<br />
this special series.<br />
For pressure-dependent control<br />
of automatic expansion valves<br />
and pressure holding devices<br />
Example 1:<br />
Requirement<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> holding devices and automatic expansion valves usually have a gas cushion whose pressure<br />
must be kept constant within a certain range. If the pressure is too low, a compressor is switched on.<br />
If the pressure is too high, a solenoid valve must be opened to vent the gas. Between these two levels<br />
is a neutral zone, in which the compressor and the solenoid valve are at rest.<br />
Solution<br />
All pressure switches of types DCM, DNM, DNS, each with additional function ZF 217 and switching<br />
scheme A 2, are suitable. All pressureranges listed in the technical documents are possible. Example<br />
for ordering: DCM 6-217/A 2<br />
Switching function / connection scheme<br />
Switch I: With falling pressure, contact 1–2 closes (compressor on)<br />
With rising pressure, contact 1 –2 opens (compressor off)<br />
Minimum and maximum pressure<br />
monitoring in a nitrogen<br />
line<br />
Switch II:<br />
Example 2:<br />
With rising pressure, contact 2–3 closes (valve open)<br />
With falling pressure, contact 2 –3 opens (valve closed).<br />
In between there is a neutral zone in which the compressor is not switched on<br />
and the solenoid coil is not energized (off position).<br />
Requirement<br />
In a process engineering system, the pressure in a nitrogen line has to be monitored. A green signal<br />
lamp indicates that the pressure in the line is between 2.2 and 2.6 bar. If the pressure goes below 2.2<br />
bar or above 2.6 bar, the indicator lamp goes out and the system shuts down.<br />
Solution<br />
The first contact of a DCM 3–307 pressure switch with 2 microswitches opens under falling pressure<br />
at 2.2 bar; the second microswitch opens under rising pressure at 2.6 bar. If the pressure is >2.2 bar<br />
and 0.9 bar), a yellow signal lamp warns the operator that it is time to change the filter elements.<br />
If this is not done and the differential pressure rises due to further fouling (e.g. to >1.2 bar), the<br />
system must be shut down.<br />
Solution<br />
A differential pressure switch DDCM 6–307 operates under rising differential pressure (at 0.9 bar), the<br />
green control lamp goes out; at the same time the yellow lamp comes on (warning that it is time to<br />
clean the filter). If the differential pressure continues to rise (to >1.2 bar), the circuit opens via 4–6 of<br />
the second microswitch, the relay drops out and the system shuts down.

Definitions and information<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> monitoring and pressure limiting in<br />
· Steam boilers · Hot water heating systems<br />
· District heating systems · Gas installations<br />
· Oil pipelines · Firing systems<br />
· Liquid gas installations etc.<br />
is extremely important with regard to safety.<br />
Component testing<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> monitoring devices for safety-critical applications must work reliably and be tested according<br />
to the relevant directives in each case. The reliability of pressure monitors and pressure limiters<br />
must be certified by a component test which is performed by the testing agencies responsible in<br />
each case (e.g. TÜV and DVGW). The following section deals with the FEMA product range for safety-critical<br />
pressure monitoring in thermal and process engineering systems.<br />
Special construction<br />
The term “of special construction” originates from the VdTÜV Memorandum “<strong>Pressure</strong> 100/1”,<br />
issue 04.83, which defines the requirements for pressure monitors and pressure limiters for<br />
steam boilers and hot water systems. Originally used only for pressure monitoring in the area of<br />
steam and hot water, the “special construction” characteristic is increasingly used as a quality and<br />
safety argument for other applications as well. The following section describes the requirements for<br />
pressure limiters “of special construction”. Recommendations for the correct selection of pressure limiters<br />
are given by reference to safety analyses.<br />
Definitions of the VdTÜV Memorandum “<strong>Pressure</strong> 100/1”:<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> monitors (DW)<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> monitors are devices which switch off the heating system on exceeding and / or falling below a<br />
predefined pressure limit and release the heating system again only after a change in pressure.<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters (DB)<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters are devices which switch off the heating system on exceeding and / or falling below a<br />
predefined pressure limit and lock it to prevent automatic restarting.<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters “of special construction” (SDB)<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters “of special construction” perform the same tasks as pressure limiters. In addition they<br />
must satisfy the extended safety requirements of section 3.3 (of “<strong>Pressure</strong> 100/1”).

Safe condition<br />
According to DIN VDE 0660, Part 209, the safe condition of the system is reached if a cut-off command<br />
is present at the output contact which means that in the safe condition, the microswitch in the<br />
pressure limiter is actuated (opened) and the control circuit is interrupted. Series connected switching<br />
devices must react in the same way. The operating mode of the safety pressure limitation thus corresponds<br />
to the closed circuit principle.<br />

Section 3.3 of VdTÜV Memorandum “<strong>Pressure</strong> 100/1”:<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters “of special construction” must, in the event of a breakage in the mechanical<br />
part of the measuring element, lead to cut-off and interlock of the heating. This requirement is<br />
also fulfilled if the mechanical part of the measuring element is calculated for vibrating stress or has<br />
withstood a test with 2 million operating cycles and the pressurized parts of the measuring<br />
element are made of corrosion-resistant materials.<br />
(Abbreviated excerpt from VdTÜV Memorandum “<strong>Pressure</strong> 100/1”).<br />
Therefore there are two possible ways of meeting the requirements for pressure limiters “of<br />
special construction”:<br />
a) By a self-monitoring pressure sensor which is designed so that a breakage in the mechanical part of<br />
the measuring element leads to cut-off to the safe side (see Fig. 1)<br />
b) By certification of endurance testing with 2 million operating cycles during the component test (see<br />
Fig. 2)<br />
a) Self-monitoring pressure sensor with safety diaphragm<br />
(for maximum pressure monitoring only)<br />
Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional diagram of a pressure sensor which fulfils the “special construction” requirements.<br />
The measuring chamber is bordered by the housing (1), base (2) and measuring bellows (3). All<br />
parts are made of stainless steel and are welded together without filler metals. When the pressure rises<br />
the measuring bellows (3) moves upwards, supported by the back pressure spring (5). The setpoint<br />
spring installed in the switching device acts as a counterforce. A transfer bolt (6) which transfers the<br />
pressure-dependent movements of the measuring bellows (3) to the switching device located above is<br />
placed on the inside of the base. A plastic diaphragm (7), which is not in contact with the medium and<br />
in normal operation follows the movements of the measuring bellows but itself has no influence on the<br />
position of the bellows, is clamped in the upper part of the transfer bolt. On breakage of the measuring<br />
bellows (3), the medium can escape into the interior of the bellows. The medium pressure is now on<br />
the underside of the diaphragm (PL). An additional force is generated because of the far larger effective<br />
area of the diaphragm compared with the bellows, and this pushes the transfer bolt (6) upwards. This<br />
results in cut-off to the safe side. The cut-off condition thus achieved is normally interlocked electrically<br />
or mechanically, so that the system also remains cut off when the pressure drops again. The plastic<br />
diaphragm (7) is not a pressure-bearing part; it has no function in normal operation and is effective only<br />
if a leakage occurs to the measuring bellows. Safety diaphragms of the described design are permissible<br />
up to 32 bar. This should be sufficient for most applications.<br />
b) <strong>Pressure</strong> sensors with certification of 2 million operating cycles (DWR series)<br />
In this design it is assumed that the pressure sensors which have withstood dynamic loading of 2 million<br />
operating cycles during component testing can be considered as reliable elements. They do not<br />
have an additional safety device in the sensor. Although the units are produced and tested with very<br />
great care, maximum pressure limiters without additional safety device can lead to dangerous conditions<br />
if errors which cannot be detected in the tests occur due to secondary effects. These may be<br />
caused by hole corrosion due to deposited metal particles on the (usually very thin-walled) bellows of<br />
the pressure sensor, material defects in the pressure bellows or a broken weld seam. Despite careful<br />
production and testing, a residual risk remains in the case of maximum pressure monitoring. It is ultimately<br />
up to the user and operator of the systems themselves to decide on the degree of safety to which<br />
pressure vessels should be monitored.<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> sensors without safety diaphragm are self monitoring when used in minimum pressure monitoring<br />
applications.

Safety analysis for maximum<br />
pressure monitoring<br />
Observing the direction of action<br />
The preceding description and safety considerations relate to the monitoring of maximum pressure.<br />
The safe side here means: The energy supply is cut off (e.g. burner is turned off) to avoid a further<br />
pressure rise. Minimum pressure monitoring requires an entirely different approach. The safe side here<br />
means: Preventing the pressure from falling further (for example: hotwater systems with external pressure<br />
retention or monitoring of water level in heating systems). Based on a safety analysis, a pressure<br />
limiter without safety diaphragm is clearly the best option. In the event of leakage in the sensor, “low<br />
pressure” is signalled and the system switches over to the safe side. A pressure sensor without safety<br />
diaphragmis therefore “of special construction” within the meaning of Memorandum “<strong>Pressure</strong> 100/1”,<br />
if it is used as a minimum pressure limiter. On the other hand, it is clear from the above that pressure<br />
sensors with safety diaphragms, which offer considerable advantages in maximum pressure monitoring,<br />
should never be used for minimum pressure monitoring. Incorrect use can create a dangerous condition.<br />
It is therefore essential for users and planners to observe the direction of action when selecting<br />
pressure limiters.<br />
In summary it may be said:<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters “of special construction” with safety diaphragms (self-monitoring pressure sensors)<br />
offer the highest degree of safety in maximum pressure monitoring. Such devices must not however<br />
be used for minimum pressure monitoring. <strong>Pressure</strong> limiters “of special construction” with certification<br />
of 2 million operating cycles are self-monitoring in the case of minimum pressure monitoring, even<br />
without a safety diaphragm. In the case of maximum pressure monitoring, however, a residual risk<br />
remains.<br />
Safety analysis for maximum pressure monitoring<br />
If one considers the switch positions in the possible operating conditions, the difference compared<br />
with pressure sensors “of special construction” becomes clear. The left column shows normal operation<br />
in which the switch connects terminals 3 and 1. The cut-off condition when pressure is too high is<br />
shown in column 2. The control circuit is interrupted via terminals 3 and 1.<br />
The difference in safety terms is clear from column 3, which shows the switch position in the event of<br />
a leak in the pressure sensor. With a safety-engineered sensor the control circuit is interrupted, whereas<br />
in the case of a sensor without a safety diaphragm the control circuit remains closed, and thus a<br />
“dangerous condition” can arise.<br />

does not cut off to the safe side (no self-monitoring).<br />
In the different operating conditions the following<br />
switch positions occur in the case<br />
of maximum pressure monitoring: In the<br />

are not safe. A “dangerous condition” can<br />

Further observations and summary<br />
Minimum pressure<br />
All minimum pressure monitors and minimum pressure limiters are self-monitoring within the<br />
meaning of “<strong>Pressure</strong> 100/1” (with or without safety diaphragm).<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters must interlock the cut-off state<br />
Memorandum “<strong>Pressure</strong> 100/1” specifies that pressure limiters must cut off and interlock against automatic<br />
restarting. For this purpose, pressure limiters are offered with integrated mechanical interlock<br />
(reclosing lockout). The direction of action is also important in the selection of the interlock. Depending<br />
on the direction of action it is necessary to determine whether the interlock should operate on rising<br />
(maximum pressure monitoring) or falling (minimum pressure monitoring) pressure.<br />
External interlock is also possible<br />
A pressure monitor can become a pressure limiter if an electrical interlock is connected in series. The<br />
figures on page 29 show suggested interlock circuits for maximum pressure and minimum pressure<br />
monitoring. The direction of action must be observed when deciding the circuit. For the combination<br />
of pressure monitor with external interlock to be considered as a limiter “of special construction”, the<br />
pressure monitor itself must satisfy the “special construction” requirements.<br />
Other considerations<br />
“Special construction” — not just for steam and hot water systems<br />
According to current standards, pressure limiters “of special construction” are mandatory for steam -<br />
boilers according to TRD 604 and for heating systems according to DIN 4751 Part 2. They are considered<br />
to be failsafe elements within the meaning of TRD 604 and can therefore be used on installations<br />
in 24-hour operation and 72-hour operation (for further information see TRD 604). It is clearly advantageous<br />
to transfer the positive experience from pressure monitoring of steam boilers to other applications.<br />
In the interest of greater safety it is desirable to incorporate the requirements for pressure limiters<br />
“of special construction” used in safety-critical monitoring applications into other standards as<br />
well. This applies particularly to applications in the field of gas, which are covered by DIN 3398 Parts 1<br />
and 3, and liquid fuels, covered by DIN 3398 Part 4.<br />
For even greater safety:<br />
Positive opening contacts<br />
In maximum pressure monitoring, safety can be further increased through additional measures. The<br />
microswitches, normally equipped with a spring contacts, can be fitted with positive opening contacts<br />
(to protect against contact sticking).<br />
Line break and short-circuit monitoring<br />
The power supply to the pressure limiter is monitored for short-circuit and interruption by an external<br />
isolating amplifier (EX 041). In the case of faults in the power supply, the system cuts off to the safe<br />
side. EEx-d and EEx-i versions, where applicable combined with sensors “of special construction”,<br />
open up a wide range of possibilities in the field of Ex applications for process engineering systems<br />
and gas engineering. See DBS series.<br />
Summary<br />
It is apparent that safety can be improved significantly and numerous causes for the occurrence of<br />
dangerous conditions can be eliminated through the appropriate use of technical measures. However,<br />
it is also apparent that a residual risk remains. Careful planning and conscientious maintenance and<br />
testing of existing systems are absolutely essential for reliable pressuremonitoring on pipelines and<br />
pressure vessels.

DWR 625-205<br />
The pressure limiters are equipped with a reclosing<br />
lockout for the mechanical interlocking of the<br />
switch-off state. If the switching point set on the<br />
pressure limiter is reached, the limiter switches<br />
off. The switch-off state is retained even if the<br />
pressure changes again. It can only be reset by<br />
manually operating the reset button. For unlocking<br />
to be possible, the pressure at the sensor<br />
must have fallen (in the case of maximum pressure<br />
limiters) or risen (in the case of minimum<br />
pressure limiters). The pressure change values<br />
are listed in the Product Summary.<br />

Medium temperature –25…+70°C.<br />
The medium temperature at the pressure sensor<br />
must not exceed the permitted ambient temperature<br />
at the switching device. Temperatures may<br />
reach 85°C for short periods.<br />
Higher medium temperatures are possible provided<br />
the above limit values for the switching<br />
device are ensured by suitable measures<br />
(e.g. siphon).<br />

Calibration<br />
The DWR-205 series is calibrated for rising pressure.<br />
This means that the adjustable switching<br />
pressure on the scale corresponds to the switching<br />
point at rising pressure. The reset point is<br />
lower by the amount of the switching differential.<br />
(See also page 30, 2. Calibration at upper<br />
switching point). The DWR-206 series is calibrated<br />
for falling pressure. This means that the<br />
adjustable switching pressure on the scale corresponds<br />
to the switching point at falling pressure.<br />
The reset point is higher by the amount of<br />
the switching differential. (See also page 30,<br />
1. Calibration at lower switching point).<br />

FD<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters of the FD series are constructed<br />
in accordance with the special directives for<br />
liquid gas engineering. The requirements of TRB<br />
801 Appendix II §12 are met. All parts coming<br />
into contact with the medium are made of stainless<br />
steel 1.4104 and 1.4571. The parts of the<br />
sensor subjected to pressure are welded without<br />
filler metals. Over and above the requirements of<br />
the TRB, the pressure sensor is “self-monitoring”,<br />
i. e. in the event of rupture of the measuring<br />
bellows, the pressure limiter switches off to the<br />
safe side. The pressure sensor thus complies<br />
with the “special construction” requirements as<br />
defined in the VdTÜV Memorandum “<strong>Pressure</strong><br />
100/1”.<br />

The FD16-316 and FD16-327 series are calibrated<br />
for rising pressure. This means that the<br />
adjustable switching pressure on the scale corresponds<br />
to the switching point at rising pressure.<br />
The reset point is lower by the amount of<br />

Interlock defeat: After pressure reduction of<br />

Line break and short-circuit monitoring<br />
On types FD 16–326 and FD 16–327 used in<br />
conjunction with Ex 041 isolating amplifier, the<br />
control circuit is monitored for short-circuit<br />
and line break. The resistor combination incorporated<br />
into the pressure switch ensures that<br />
a defined current flows at all times during normal<br />
operation. In the event of short-circuit or<br />
line break, the current level changes and the<br />
relay drops out to the safe side.<br />
The pressure limiters are used in intrinsically safe control circuits (Ex protection EEx-ia). Through use of<br />
the Ex 041 isolating amplifier and a suitable resistor combination in the switching device of the pressure<br />
limiter, the control circuit is monitored for line break and short-circuit.<br />

Safety-engineered pressure limiters offer a higher degree of safety compared with normal pressure<br />
switches and are therefore especially suitable for chemical process engineering and thermal installations<br />
in which safety is an especially critical factor in pressure monitoring. The pressure switches can<br />
also be used in Ex zones (zone 1, 2 and 21, 22) and in all cases require an Ex 041 isolating<br />
amplifier. The isolating switching amplifier is also responsible for monitoring lines for short-circuit and<br />
line break and therefore offers an additional safety advantage — even in non-Ex zones.<br />
For Ex applications, the isolating amplifier must be installed outside the Ex zone.<br />
The lines between the Ex 041 isolating amplifier and the pressure switch are monitored for short-circuit<br />
and line break.<br />
Safety requirements for pressure limiters<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> limiters “of special construction” (DBS) must fulfil additional safety requirements, i.e. breakage<br />
or leakage in the mechanical part of the sensor must lead to shutdown to the safe side. The pressure<br />
limitermust respond as if the system pressure had already exceeded the maximum limit. The control<br />
circuit for the pressure limiter must also be considered from the point of view of safety, as short-circuits<br />
in the supply lines or other faults in the control current circuit can lead to dangerous conditions.<br />
Switching element with positive opening operation and gold-plated contacts<br />
The microswitch is equipped with positive opening operation. Rather than transmitting the plunger<br />
force via a spring, which is the usual method with most microswitches, this newly developed<br />
microswitch has an additional lever which transmits the movements of the pressure bellows positively<br />
to the contact lever. If the spring breaks, the contact lever is moved directly.<br />
Line break and short-circuit monitoring in the control circuit<br />
The resistor connected in series with the switching contact limits the current to a defined value with<br />
the switch closed. In the event of short-circuit in the area between the isolating amplifier and the series<br />
resistor, the current rises above the predetermined limit value, the relay of the isolating amplifier drops<br />
out, the output current circuit is interrupted and thus the safe condition is achieved. In the event of a<br />
line break, the current flow isinterrupted, the relay drops to the safe side and interrupts the output current<br />
circuit (safety sequence). Furthermore, the isolating amplifier is designed so that, if faults occur in<br />
the electronics (conductor interruption, component defect etc.) and in the resulting situations, the safe<br />
shutdown condition is assured. These characteristics of the safety-engineered isolating amplifier,<br />
including line break and short-circuit monitoring, satisfy the requirements of DIN/VDE 0660, Part 209.<br />
Connection diagram<br />
See also Datasheet Ex 041. For pressure monitoring in Ex areas, the isolating amplifier must be<br />
installed outside the Ex zone. The pressure limiter has an intrinsically safe control current<br />
circuit (EEx-ia). This arrangement is suitable for zones 1 and 2, 21 and 22.

Calibration<br />
The DGM series is calibrated for rising pressure. This means that the adjustable switching pressure on<br />
the scale corresponds to the switching point at rising pressure. The reset point is lower by the amount<br />
of the switching differential. (See also page 30, 2. Calibration at upper switching point).<br />

The type EX 041 isolating amplifier is used for the transmission of intrinsically safe control commands<br />
(e.g. from pressure switches) to non-intrinsically safe active circuits. In the event of short-circuit<br />
or line break in the control circuit, the isolating amplifier switches to the safe side (see<br />
“Direction of action” table). It also reacts to the safe side (output relay drops out) if internal component<br />
failures and resultant errors occur.<br />
Output I Relay output failsafe according to VDE 0660, Part 209, terminals separately led to the<br />
outside for series connected protective interlock circuit, for example.<br />
Output II Progressive output with relay stage (not failsafe).<br />
Output III Alarm output potential-free (not failsafe).<br />
Important note<br />
The type EX 041 isolating amplifier can only be used together with pressure switches with resistor<br />
combination (additional function ZF 576, ZF 577…, see also “Application” above).<br />

<strong>Pressure</strong> mediators attached to pressure switches<br />
A separating diaphragm or a pressure mediator<br />
is necessary if aggressive, viscous or crystallizing<br />
media must be kept away from the actual pressure<br />
sensor. A pressure mediator is also indispensable<br />
to avoid cavities if easy cleaning of the<br />
supply lines is important. Special “milk pipe<br />
unions” according to DIN 11 851 are customary<br />
for pressure monitoring in the foodstuffs industry.<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> mediators and evaluating devices<br />
(pressure switches, pressure transmitters, pressure<br />
gauges) from a self-contained unit. The<br />
transmission fluid (filling medium) transmits the<br />
medium pressure from the separating membrane<br />
to the measuring element. The filling<br />
medium M 20 is food-safe and, being able to<br />
withstand temperatures from –40 to +300°C, is<br />
also suitable for industrial applications.<br />

Technical information<br />
Combinations with pressure mediators are filled and calibrated at 20°C. Very different operating temperatures<br />
can adversely affect the measurement result, particularly with long capillary pipes and large<br />
flange diameters. Furthermore, all capillary pressure mediators must be filled and adjusted at the<br />
same height as the evaluation unit. If the measuring points and the evaluation units are at different<br />
heights within the system, any pressure difference must be taken into account when setting the<br />
switching points. This effect is particularly noticeable when monitoring small system pressures.<br />

Operating method<br />
<strong>Pressure</strong> transmitters are used to convert overpressure,<br />
vacuum or differential pressure into a<br />
proportional electrical signal of 0–10 V, 0–20 mA<br />
(4–20 mA). A metal bellows or diaphragm is<br />
exposed to the occurring pressure. The pressure-dependent<br />
movements of the metal bellows<br />
are transmitted free of play to an inductive displacement<br />
sensor. The electronic system converts<br />
the position of the displacement sensor<br />
into a proportional electrical signal (voltage and<br />
injected current).<br />

Technical data<br />
All plugged-in modules are powered<br />
via the terminal strip of the<br />
sensor module (on ED 1) or via the<br />
plug connection. The output signal<br />
is sent from each module for further<br />
evaluation via the same route.<br />

Adjustment and operation<br />
Operating ranges and output signals are adjustable<br />
over a wide range.<br />
An outstanding characteristic of the pressure transmitters is the variability of the characteristic curve,<br />
which means that the pressure range and output signal can be adapted to any subsequent control<br />
system.<br />
P0 = starting pressure of nominal range<br />
PN = nominal pressure (end point of nominal range)<br />
PA = starting pressure of set range<br />
PE = end pressure of set range<br />

output signal 0–20 mA (0–10 V)<br />
or 4–20 mA (2–10 V)<br />

output signal<br />
5 = Slide switch for changing the<br />
steepness of the characteristic<br />

Output signals for module ED 1<br />
Basic setting<br />
The factory default setting covers the nominal range P0<br />
(usually 0 bar) to PN.<br />
Altering the range<br />
The range can easily be altered by shifting the end point and<br />
adjusting the steepness of the characteristic curve.<br />
Inversion<br />
The output signal can be inverted by means of a slideswitch.<br />

Range alteration and inversion as above.<br />
The current signal can be reduced below 4 mA (down to approx.<br />

threshold should be set below 2.5 mA.

Setting and testing<br />
Altering the operating range<br />
To check functioning or change the settings from outside the system, a test set-up is required which<br />
meets the following requirements:<br />
1. It must be possible to apply pressure to the pressure transmitter up to the desired final value. The<br />
pressure must be displayed by a sufficiently accurate pressure gauge.<br />
2. To display the output signal a voltmeter with a measuring range of 0–10 V (preferably 0–15 V) or an<br />
ammeter with a measuring range of 0–20 mA (preferably 0–25 or 0–30 mA) are required.<br />
3. To supply power to the transmitter, a 24 V AC or 24 V DC voltage source is needed.<br />
Setting operations must be carried out in the correct sequence<br />
1. Remove the plastic cover<br />
2. Set the slide switches (3) and (4) to the correct position (switch 3 is only present on ED 1)<br />
Switch (3): Output signal 0–10 V / 0–20 mA or 4–20 mA / 2–10 V (only on ED 1)<br />
Switch (4): Direction of action<br />
Switch up<br />
rising pressure = rising output signal<br />
Switch down (INV): rising pressure = falling output signal<br />
3. Loosen the locking screw above the cover glass (approx. 2 turns anticlockwise)<br />
4. Apply final pressure PE<br />
5. Using a screwdriver, turn the setting spindle (1) to the desired output signal (depending on position<br />
of slide switches (3) and (4): 10 V, 20 mA, 0 V, 0 mA, 4 mA)<br />
6. Apply starting pressure PA<br />
With the potentiometer (2), adjust the output signal to the desired value (depending on position of<br />
slide switches: 0 V, 0 mA, 10 V, 20 mA, 4 mA)<br />
7. Check the setting again and then retighten the locking screw for the setting spindle.<br />
Important: Always set the upper final value PE with the setting spindle (1) first, and then the<br />
lower initial value PA with the potentiometer (2).<br />
Generating an output signal without pressure<br />
It can often be very useful to generate an output signal before commissioning the system, in order to<br />
check electrical operation, the direction of action and the functioning of downstream control elements.<br />
The procedure is as follows:<br />
1. Loosen the four screws on the scale window and remove the cover glass, scale plate<br />
and rubber seal.<br />
2. In the lower, wide part of the cut-out in the housing, insert the tip of a small screwdriver<br />
underneath the bridge.<br />
3. Carefully move the bridge up and down. When the supply voltage is applied, the output signal<br />
should change depending on the movements of the bridge.<br />
4. Check the direction of action. Upward movement of bridge corresponds to rising pressure.<br />
5. Once you have finished testing, carefully screw the parts back on again in the following order:<br />
rubber seal, scale plate, cover glass.<br />
Caution: In the event of incorrect assembly, IP 65 protection is no longer assured.<br />
Adjustment instructions: Correction of effect with static pressure<br />
· The system in which the FHBN is installed must be filled and exposed to the usual static pressure.<br />
· A differential pressure must not be active, i.e. no pump operation and no flow.<br />
· Remove the plastic cover and check slide switches 3 + 4.<br />
· The FHBN is supplied with the correct voltage and the output voltage is displayed.<br />
· Loosen the spindle locking screw above the inspection window.<br />
· Adjust setting spindle “1” with a screwdriver until the output signal is “0”.<br />
· Retighten the spindle with the spindle locking screw.

Operating ranges are adjustable over a wide range<br />
Basic setting<br />
The factory default setting covers<br />
the nominal range P0 (usually 0<br />
bar) to PN.<br />
P0 = Starting pressure of nominal<br />
range<br />
PN = Nominal pressure (end<br />
point of nominal range)<br />
PA = Starting pressure of set<br />
range<br />
PE = End pressure of set range<br />
Altering the range<br />
The range can easily be altered<br />
by shifting the zero point and<br />
adjusting the steepness of the<br />
characteristic curve.<br />
Observe the correct sequence of<br />
adjustment (see next page).<br />
Inversion<br />
(only on 3-conductor system)<br />
The output signal can be inverted<br />
with the “INV” slide switch.<br />
Inversion not possible<br />
on 2-conductor system.

Setting the operating range, testing<br />
Preliminary remark: The transmitters are carefully set in the factory to the nominal range. If the operating<br />
range is changed to different values, the guaranteed accuracy no longer applies.<br />
The attainable accuracy depends, among other things, on the care taken during adjustment.<br />
Warm up the device before making adjustments.<br />
Accurate settings are only possible with the device at operating temperature; therefore connect the<br />
power supply approximately 10 minutes before starting to make adjustments.<br />
Setting operations must be carried out in the correct<br />
sequence<br />
1. Apply minimum pressure PA to the sensor and set the output signal to 0 V or 4 mA<br />
with potentiometer 1.<br />
2. Apply maximum pressure PE to the sensor. Set output signals to 10 V / 20 mA<br />
with potentiometer 2.<br />
3. Check the settings.<br />
Important: Always set the zero point with potentiometer 1 first, then set the amplification (end of<br />
range) with potentiometer 2.<br />
For inversion of the output signal, operate slide switch INV and repeat the setting procedure in the<br />
same way. Inversion is only possible on 3-conductor systems.<br />
The plug-in digital display AZ facilitates accurate setting<br />
Digital display AZ 331 (additional module) can be very useful for setting operating ranges which differ<br />
from the nominal range. The digital display (factory setting 0–10 V) plugs into the connector 6 and<br />
shows the output signal continuously during the setting process.<br />
Device arrangement for calibration and testing from outside<br />
the system<br />
To check functioning or change the settings from outside the system, a test set-up is required which<br />
meets the following requirements:<br />
1. It must be possible to apply pressure to the pressure transmitter up to the desired final value. The<br />
pressure must be displayed by a sufficiently accurate pressure gauge.<br />
2. To display the output signal a voltmeter with a measuring range of 0–10 (preferably 0–15 V) or an<br />
ammeter with a display range of 0–20 mA (preferably 0–25 or 0–30 mA) are required.<br />
3. To supply power to the transmitter, a 24 VAC or 24 VDC voltage source is needed.

AZ display modules show the output of a transmitter<br />
from the MODUFLEX system on an LED<br />

On 3-conductor systems the supply and signal<br />
voltage is led from the evaluation module via ribbon<br />
cable. No additional wiring is needed.<br />
The starting and end values of the display can<br />
be set anywhere between -50 and +1199, so<br />
that any display range can be assigned to any<br />
pressure range. The decimal point can be<br />
moved with a slide switch.<br />
The y-signals of the transmitter can thus be displayed<br />
in any unit, e.g. V, mA, bar, mbar, %,°C,<br />

Electrical isolation of analogue transmitter signals<br />
The analogue output signals of a transmitter can<br />
be electrically isolated from the evaluation device<br />
using a signal separator. In this way, interference<br />
affecting the transmitter signal can be suppressed<br />
and influences caused by ground loops<br />
prevented.<br />
A signal separator is absolutely essential for<br />
transmitters whose output signals have to be<br />
transmitted over long distances and for signal<br />
lines which are exposed to strong electromagnetic<br />
radiation.<br />

The 4-channel configuration and the limitation to voltage signals results in very good value for money.<br />
Signal separator GT 4 is designed for 4 input signals between 0 and 10 V (e.g. 0–10 V, 2–10 V, 0–5 V,<br />
0–1 V). The input signal is conveyed to the output terminals in a ratio of 1:1. The input and output are<br />
electrically isolated.<br />

Type Channels Transformation Operating range<br />
GT 4 4 1 : 1 between 0 and 10 V<br />
All 4 channels can be used in parallel and independently of one another; however, the input and output<br />
channels are not electrically isolated from one another.<br />
Current signals of 0–20 mA or 4–20 mA in the input circuit can likewise be processed if a 500 ohm<br />
resistor with the requisite tolerance is attached to the input terminals. A proportional voltage signal is<br />
present at the output. The accuracy achieved in the separation of current signals and conversion into<br />
voltage signals essentially depends on the accuracy of the 500 ohm resistor that is used. With a resistor<br />
value of 500 ± 0.1%, a transmission accuracy of 0.3% is achieved.<br />
